5G will bring outstanding novelties and improvements not only in capacity, latency, connection density, quality and user experience, but also in terms of flexibility, efficiency, scalability and openness of the network. This will create a wide range of possibilities for self-driving cars, smart cities, connected society, Internet of Things, broadcast-like services and lifeline communication. This course provides an overview of the 5G mobile communication technology, market and services.
EXPECTED ACCOMPLISHMENTS
- Outline the role of 3GPP in the 5G standardization effort
- Specify performance targets for 5G services defined by ITU
- Outline the 5G network architecture and provide examples of 5G use cases
- Describe how Software Defined Networking, Network Function Virtualization, Cloud Computing and Network Orchestration facilitates 5G Networks
- Understand how voice and data calls are supported in 5G networks
